Bishops Walk

Just half an hour’s walk from the centre of Durham, Bishops Walk is also ideally situated for travel throughout the north east. A1 junctions 61 and 62 are both within ten minutes’ drive, and Durham Station, less than two miles away, is on the Edinburgh to London Kings Cross line.
Trains reach Newcastle in less than 20 minutes and London in under three hours. Several bus routes pass Bishops Walk, providing frequent links to the city centre, the Durham coastline, Hartlepool and Sunderland, and National Cycle Route 14 runs alongside Bishops Walk, offering access to the city centre.
Bishops Walk benefits from an exceptional range of shops and services. As well as local convenience stores and food takeaways, there are Aldi, Iceland, Lidl and Tesco stores, Boots, and a choice of major home and furnishing retailers within a few minutes’ walk.
Half a mile away, Durham City Retail Park includes B&Q, Currys and B&M outlets alongside restaurants and gyms.
In contrast, Durham’s beautiful, historic streets are lined with traditional local shops, pubs and restaurants, and the Market Hall, hosting more than 40 retailers, is complemented by an outdoor Saturday market.
